About assignment link migration

Assignment links for Canvas and, if enabled by your LMS administrator, Blackboard and D2L Brightspace are automatically migrated when you transition an LMS course integrated with MyLab and Mastering (LTI 1.1) to Access Pearson (LTI 1.3). Otherwise, you need to manually add links.

What's not supported for assignment link migration: Assignment link migration isn't available for the Partner CPI (LTI 1.1) and Direct integrations. It doesn't apply to Moodle, Sakai, and Schoology.

Transition to Access Pearson

To transition, you'll prepare your LMS course and pair it using Access Pearson. After you pair the course, assignment links automatically migrate to the new MyLab or Mastering course.

How to transition active courses

How to transition copies of previously paired courses

Mastering platform update: Transitioning your course to Access Pearson (LTI 1.3) and pairing it with a new edition? Most assignment and course tool links automatically migrate to LTI 1.3. To ensure this works when pairing a new edition of a Mastering platform update course, copy your previous paired course. Go to Diagnostics for your previous course and note the course ID. When you pair the new LMS course, enter the course ID you noted under Copy an existing course. Links to eText sections, Scheduled Reading, and Adaptive Followups in a new edition aren't included in the course copy or the link migration. You'll need to manually add these links to your LMS course.

Copy status

In most cases, assignment links will automatically appear in the copied LMS course after pairing. You'll have the option to see a status or list of assignment links. Course tool links aren't supported by the Access Pearson integration and aren't copied. Manually delete any course tool links from your course before you transition your LMS course to Access Pearson.
